Now guess what I did next... Yep I put the hood back on and started fitting the 1/8" wire edge to the hood and grill shell. I used some magnits and clamps to hold the wire were I thought it would fit best and tacked it in place in only a few spots. I then pulled off the clamps and magnits and shut the hood and checked the gap. I had to cut a few tacks loose and re-align the wire in a few spots to get it just how I wanted it. I checked it so many times from all sides and angles to make sure it was just right. I also used straite edges to make sure it was right. Once it was all lined up and I had tacked it every few inches I pulled it back off again to weld up.

I used my Tig to finish up the welding of the front edge only because I need more practice with it. A mig would have worked great and been much faster as well. Just make sure you only weld a bout a 1/2" at a time and more around alot to keep the heat down.
